[quote=“strangely, post:8, topic:168617”]You can get round this by using an HDMI switch or some other form of powered repeater! It wont affect all devices anyway as I have several that keep power over the cable even when off! It may even be possible to turn your HDMI-CEC functionality on (if you have it), as this will generally keep power up also I think!
I have one installed in reverse that I’m actually sending IR from an SQ blaster from my AV rack to one of my TV’s…similar to how you are using them I think![/quote]
Good ideas, thanks, and I am using them exactly as you are. In my final setup I will be using a HDMI switch, but it will not directly connect to my projector as the output from the 4x4 switch will go to the AV Receiver and the Receiver will then connect to the Projector. The other 2 TVs will connect directly to the HDMI switch and so should not have an issue, just the theater setup. The CEC idea is interesting and I will try that, my receiver does support CEC and the manual states the power consumption is higher, so it seems like this might work.
